If you have the time <br />Pause <br />And read what's <br />Written on my tombstone <br />I am <br />The freedom fighter <br />This generation <br />Refuses to know about <br />I am the fearless cadre <br />That the pen pushers in the presidency <br />Refuse to honor <br /> <br />If you have the time <br />Do knock on what used to be the <br />Horrific structure of the thing <br />That in it's heyday I called my house <br />My comrades have turned it into <br />A fine gambling den of vice <br />My children come there to <br />Learn under the trees <br />My wife is their object of desire <br />My father pops in now and then <br />To cry like a baby there <br />The skeleton of my mother lies hidden <br />Under the filth that the drunkards <br />Have strewn all over the place out <br />Of respect for the dead <br /> <br /> <br />If you have the time <br />Tell your children <br />And their children's children <br />My blood will water the tree <br />Of their economic emancipation <br /> <br />If you have the time <br />Tell the world that the corrupt rule <br />Of the rats on the gravy train <br />Is doomed to end long <br />Before Jesus comes <br />If you have the time <br />Tell everybody who wants to hear <br />The plunderers of the public till too <br />Will have their day in hell <br />If you have the time <br />Remember the martyrs <br />Who died for you<br /><br />BrokenHeartPheko Motaung<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/if-you-have-the-time/
